From Publisher's Weekly:

"Bean packs a lot into this debut, but little of it resonates. Victory is a little town in Wyoming where sheriff Harry Starbranch, formerly a Denver homicide detective, has come in search of a slower pace: a wish that goes by the boards when a teenage girl is raped and murdered and two dead men are discovered nearby. Initially it looks like a case of cattle rustling that got out of control, with the unfortunate girl being in the wrong place at the wrong time. This tale's undistinguished features are many: rustling isn't especially riveting as a potential crime; every person Harry confides in is a seeming font of wrinkly Western wisdom; the assembled redneck yahoos are out-and-out racist/sexist cretins; and Harry's burdened by the usual romantic angst and demons?in this case, a second shot at romance with an ex-wife, and a recently released killer he once put away. With his studied taste for Western wear and hard liquor, Harry is dogged and competent, but that's about the extent of his appeal."
